## Summary

NHS Essex Integrated Care Board commissioned outpatient Denosumab Therapy and shared care documentation for primary care. The service covers Basildon and Brentwood in Essex. It is intended to maintain Denosumab treatment for existing patients while primary care assumes responsibility, and to prepare patient records so primary care has the required documentation when patients attend for injections. The requirement covers approximately 100 to 150 patients needing injections, alongside shared care documentation for around 700 patients who are not receiving injections during the service period. The procurement is classified as health services. The work combines clinical outpatient treatment with the completion, organisation and supply of patient records and shared care documents to primary care.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded through an urgent direct award under Regulation 14, using a below-threshold procedure without competition. Cora Health MSK Limited was selected for the single lot. The award was made on 14 April 2026, with an awarded and contracted value of £20,000 including gross value. The contract period runs from 15 April 2026 to 30 June 2026, for two months. The published cost and volume arrangement estimates £7,950 for Denosumab Therapy at £53 per treatment and £12,000 for patient records at £20 per record, with a total estimate of £20,000. NHS Essex Integrated Care Board is the buying organisation. The contract is active.

This requirement indicates demand for suppliers able to provide Denosumab outpatient treatment while supporting the transfer of care to primary care. A credible future provider would need the clinical capability to administer injections safely, manage a short-term cohort of roughly 100 to 150 patients, and coordinate effectively with NHS primary care. It would also need the operational capacity to complete and quality-check shared care documentation for around 700 patient records, organise those records chronologically, and supply them in a form that is ready for use when patients attend for treatment. Relevant experience should therefore combine outpatient medicines delivery, patient-record administration and reliable coordination across primary and specialist care. The buyer’s use of an urgent direct award also shows the importance of continuity and rapid mobilisation for this requirement.
